Sometime during the evening of November 20 or morning of November 21, 2017, six different residents had their vehicles broken into. These vehicles were in their driveways. Most of the vehicles were unlocked with at least one locked. Items of value were taken from the vehicles. This occurred in the 1600 block of Leesville Road and the 100 to 200 block of Cattle Lane in the Evington area of Campbell County.
